Wow ! Poor critters.....  heh.   I was running 4 miles, hill work with 50# pack, pumping iron and couple hundred incline situps - thought I was doing well til I tried squat jumps - dang got to 20 and I was done.  Those may be the simplest and best exercises for hill hiking ?  Few days of those and I went up and down Mount St. Helens like it was nothing.   

Good luck on your program..... hope you survive it...
